Just a little story about how the most bent lies pass for Truth in late-stage capitalism.
I might add: Nord Stream.
I might add that they tried to cram down our throats for years the one about evil Russia hacking emails inside the Clinton campaign.
Turns out, not only did Russia not hack them, it wasn’t a hack at all.
It was a leak from one of their own staffers.
That young staffer turned up mysteriously dead.
The FBI claimed they knew nothing about it, until another leak informed us that they had the kid’s laptop all along.
Then a judge ordered them to release the laptop contents.
And they refused that legal order, and said that they would release it, after 66 years had passed.
Why would they defy the court and try to turn this into something on the level of the Kennedy assassination?
One theory is that the laptop contents might shed light on who killed Seth Rich, and why.
There’s no proof of that. But … what other rational explanation is there?
I’d really love to know.
